The mother of a nine-year-old girl shot dead by a burglar in her own home has called for an end to gang violence, two years on from her daughter’s death.

Olivia’s mother Cheryl cried as she called for an end to the “no-grass” culture associated with gang violence.

Appearing on Good Morning Britain on Friday (16 August), she said: “Anything that you know. You need to speak up.”
